Function
Hormone that acts as a blood lipid regulator by regulating serum triglyceride levels (PubMed:22569073, PubMed:22809513, PubMed:23150577). May be involved in the metabolic transition between fasting and refeeding: required to direct fatty acids to adipose tissue for storage in the fed state (By similarity).

Supplementary info
- This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
- Activity summary
Betatrophin also known as ANGPTL8 or Lipasin is a protein involved in metabolic regulation. It has a molecular mass of approximately 22 kDa. The liver and adipose tissue mainly express this protein. Betatrophin plays a significant role in energy balance by influencing lipid metabolism making it an important factor in managing metabolic processes in the body.
- Biological function summary
Betatrophin regulates the proliferation of pancreatic beta cells which are important for insulin production. It does not form part of a larger protein complex. Its expression can increase in response to metabolic demands linking it closely with the mechanisms of energy utilization and storage.
- Pathways
Betatrophin interacts closely with lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. It influences the insulin signaling pathway and is interconnected with the regulation of triglyceride levels. In the context of these pathways betatrophin collaborates with proteins like ANGPTL3 to modulate lipid breakdown and storage playing an important part in metabolic balance.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Betatrophin is associated with Type 2 diabetes and obesity. Its role in inducing pancreatic beta cell proliferation makes it a point of interest for managing insulin resistance a common feature of diabetes. Proteins like ANGPTL4 also interact with betatrophin influencing lipid metabolism and linking to disorders such as obesity. Understanding betatrophin's function and regulation offers potential therapeutic targets for these metabolic diseases.
